SandFX
I don't like EURCHF setup
MovingAverages are "mixed up" ,just like spaghetti
I know sometimes great moves start like this,and I like spaghetti,but NOT in the Forex
that's my 2 cents anyway..

Hey Sand, I just looked at my trade history and the NZDUSD actually DID stop me out at 3 pips but then it reentered which it shouldn't for the manual EA.
Yes, I will gladly share my EA enhancements as soon as I'm sure I know what I'm doing here first. I'm trying to make sure I catch the setups when they happen, usually when you and I are sleeping, unless you can spot it before then. If Steve's EA handles the trades and entries ok, I may just thin it down and add my bit. I just don't want it opening a new losing trade after a 3pip BE.
I seem to be liking the 'auto' EA more than the manual one. So, I started a new demo to just test the auto EA from Steve H. I like the results so far..
A little over 112 pips with no losses!!
Now that's some treasure 
Some explanation.. I don't want to bore anyone..
AUD/USD: The auto EA first got me in.. went to at least 15 pips and kicked in the MPTM... WONDERFUL.. but it didn't pull back very far. Then it got me back in for a very good profit that I actually took myself out with. Those darn emotions get to me when I open the charts and see all the excitement. I should have just stayed in, but.. you know how emotions go. The H4 was looking good as it was below both MAs, so I took it
More coming up below..

When I looked at it last night the entry had already happened. It was still in a good position, and the H4 was below both MAs, so I got in myself and let the auto EA manage it while I slept.
Turned out it got me out with 3 pips profit.. a little bummed about that when I woke up but I left the EA on. During the day while I was at work
it got me back in and went to the TP. Horay for TP 
(ok.. no laughs on that one, I guess)More...

Wouldn't you know it.. As soon as I got in, the darn traders rallied the market against me. THEY KNEW I GOT IN AND PURPOSEFULLY TRIED TO SCARE ME!! But they didn't know I was using a good EA.
I got myself in this one because it had already past the entry. Swissforex had mentioned that he didn't like this one because it looked like spaghetti with the MAs. I thought maybe it was too close to the 240 for comfort, but if you look at the H4 it was below both MAs. I took a chance because of the H4. It turned out pretty good.
I took '5 minutes' again already to look at all 22 markets and didn't find anything good yet. But it's not my time for bed. I'll look at them again before I head off to dreamland. I guess I'll have to take another '5 minutes' and study real hard.

Yeah, I'll try the Auto EA because the code looks ok for the manual trader but it doesn't shut down, for me anyway....
The other indi I look at when I have to decide to get in manually is the MACD/Stoch indi on the H4. The stochastics on that indi really help me to make a decision on my own. When both are above the 90 or below the 10 its a good sign that price will be coming back

I'm off today, so I'll have a better chance to check on things. I better not let my emotions get the better of me. Girls do really good job at that with me.
Have a good day!

Woo Hoo! My first winning trade in a while! I took the EurGbp last night with the auto EA and got a nice trade that hit the opposite TMA. Exactly how Bob described the system and how my first EA would have traded except price never broke the lower TMA. May have to look at "close (near)" instead.
Looks like it was a good trade. Too bad I missed it. 
I just looked at that chart. I didn't have that one on my repitwa (however you spell that). Now it's added. So, that makes 23 markets I'm looking at. Thanks, Eric.. you just added to the amount of work I have to do now. what a guy

Well.. I've done my afternoon '5 minutes' of research. Nothing yet that I can tell.
GBP/CAD seems to be changing direction and crossing the 240 at some point.. maybe.. who can tell. It's been creeping up to the 240 for ages.
The CHF/JPY seems to be snaking along the 240.. too close for comfort for me for now.
USD/CAD just changed direction and crossed the 240 going long today. Maybe setting up soon.
Those are the ones I'm looking at today. I'll check them later tonight before sack time.
So far for the week: 147 pips on the Auto EA. Not bad for it just being Tuesday afternoon. I'm Lovin It

I can't say how he did it....
My success on using this system and the EA is just what it is. I'm showing whats happening and its been great so far. I'll continue to show my results with wins & losses. With all my years of trading I have never had this much consistency in profits. I am so grateful to NB for sharing all his hard work. I agree with you.. the winning percentage is greater with this system.
